Okay....as with any game it's important to take some observations away from it regardless of how you fared.
For me, I took away that after three games for Bowling Green...they are not very good. Not sure why. O. Jacobs is a major talent but it doesn't seem that the rest of the team is up to the same speed. O.Jacobs had a miserable game if anyone saw. The green light should have gone off after struggling with Ball State last week.
Anyway, what should we take away from this. Well, my first impression was that Wisconsin who beat BG 56-42 just is not very good. Throw out the Temple game since Temple is slightly better than a High School team and the lousy/sloppy game against North Carolina this past Saturday and you have a BG team that nearly beat them in Camp Randall and put up 42 on them easy too.
Now with scUM in town this weekend and scUM (as usualy vastly overrated) this looks like, as Razz has already noted, a game between two overrated schools.
However, scUM has won 15 of the last 17 against UW and I am not sure how UW wins this one. I mean if BG nearly won there and from what I see now BG is not very good...what is scUM going to do against them.
As good a coach as B.Alvarez, he is horrendous against scUM and scUM has a really long streak of winning Big Ten openers for whatever that is worth. The only thing going for UW is that they are home and a night game that is nationally televised.
Otherwise, I am leaning scUM -2.5 for now....anyone else reach a similar conclusion watching this game tonight?
